【解析】

這篇短文給我們講述了一個小故事，Smith先生給了他的兒子兩個橘子，他的小兒子非常喜歡吃橘子，他把小的給了哥哥，自己吃大的。哥哥知道后，很不高興，他說他會給弟弟大的。小兒子說他早就知道，所以他拿了大的。

【1】根據(jù)短文中One morning during the holidays, when he was cleaning the car, his younger son came and asked him for some money for sweets可知，Smith先生在擦車。

【2】根據(jù)短文中One morning during the holidays, when he was cleaning the car, his younger son came and asked him for some money for sweets可知，Smith先生的小兒子給他要錢買糖。

【3】根據(jù)短文中Sweets are bad for your teeth，"Mr. Smith said. "Take these two oranges instead可知，Smith先生的小兒子想要錢買糖，但Smith先生沒有同意，給了他兩個橘子。

【4】根據(jù)短文中One of the oranges is quite a lot bigger than the other one, and as the small boy liked oranges very much, he kept that one for himself, and gave his brother the smaller one可知，Smith先生的小兒子把大的橘子留給了自己，把小的給了哥哥。所以答案為The younger boy。

【5】根據(jù)短文中When the other boy saw that his brother had a much larger orange than his own, he said to him, "It's selfish （自私的） to take the bigger one for yourself可知，哥哥覺得弟弟把大的橘子留給了自己，這樣做很自私。

這篇短文講述了一個小故事，比較容易理解。題型是任務型閱讀，后面設置了五個問題。做題時，應先通讀短文，掌握大意。然后根據(jù)題目所問定位到原文相關之處，使用正確的語言作答。例如第2小題，題目問的是小兒子要什么，注意ask….for這個短語，根據(jù)短文中One morning during the holidays, when he was cleaning the car, his younger son came and asked him for some money for sweets這句話可知，Smith先生的小兒子給他要錢買糖，故回答He asked for some money for sweets.再如第5小題，題目涉及哥哥，因此答案在短文的最后一段，根據(jù)哥哥說的話可知，他覺得弟弟把大橘子留給了他自己，這樣做是很自私的，故應回答Because he kept the bigger orange for himself.
